whats the problem there then Ted? OP has already had something decommissioned, by gas fitters with the appropriate Gas Safe qualification

I dont have the details, but it looks very similar to this one

I thought it had been answered thats why lol As far as im aware, we have no special dispensation for this particular part which supplies plaque heaters mostly and the odd boiler which have their own governors at aboit 20 mb i assume.

Id get into a discussion about it because it's quite interesting, but in the interest of commercial anonymity I can't

All sorts. the industry is steel

Industrial. its taken off a 10in 75mbar line and regulated down

35mbar if you prefer

thats how we realised it was a ring, so I decided to draw it out. Was just curious whether that sort of design would meet the regs in principle

is it within regs to install gas as a ring? Im just looking at an existing installation, not installing or altering or anything, just curious. basically, its a figure 8 with the supply fed in at one corner, 35mbar 2"

I must be having a thick spell. I cant get my head around some pipe size calculations. I have a studio, 50mm insulation timber framed building that I am going to extend my existing boiler to cover on a separate zone. The pipe run to the furthest radiator is about 14m For reasons of space...

sadly, i have seen plenty of injuries caused by the retractable knives, so i now issue these

they can retract when using them resulting in your hand slipping the blade can rotate and come through the case resulting in a deep cut on your first finger fixed blade ones are much safer

when i blew my supply fuse, they came and fitted a bigger one and commented that i now had an extra 70 amps to play with. I asked the DNO on the phone and they said I have a 100 amp supply and can use 100 amps.

The logic she was applying was that since the heater continued to work, its obviously the sockets that are faulty, not the heater same when RCDs trip and MCBs trip, since thats the bit thats stopping the rest working, that must be where the fault is, so people replace them and wonder why it...

wouldnt logic suggest a 2a fuse? The iec cables are rated at 10a, hence the 10a fuses. if a fuse goes internally, its usually game over for the appliance anyway these days, just changing the fuse isnt likely to work, components probably need swapping too

slightly worrying since he is an electrician! :lol: incidentally, what is the going rate for a board change, id have thought about £500

no, jut thought the gymrat guy was being an arse and sounded like the sort that likes to invent regs

i was wondering who was right!

Browsing the internet, i came across this current discussion http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1103533 what do we think?

thats not so bad then, ill just improve the ventilation for now then thanks
